The SMS being integrated into (contrary with providing single equipment (such as smart phone)) in clothes can provide lot of advantages.
For example, integrated SMS can manage the large number of connection with different sensors, and can process signal by means of single mini
USB cable is come and telephone communication (for example independent of the quantity of handled signal).Do not consider to be included in future device (for example
The socks of shirt, length and thigh, glove, socks, balaclava etc.) in sensor quantity, in SMS and sensor assembly (for example
Phone) between connection can always be based on single 5 pin USB and connect, thus substantially reduce from this equipment to phone module
Female connectors and public connector size.In general configuration, SMS passes through UART (universal asynchronous receiver-transmitter) mould
Block is connected to public connector, and public connector is set with movement by another UART and UART to USB module (see accompanying schematic figure)
Standby communication.
Integrated SMS can be placed on the diverse location on clothes.For example, it can be placed in the base portion of the cervical region between omoplate
Place, on the waist area on thigh, on arm, chest or even on socks, glove, balaclava etc..
SMS may also be configured to the different telephone communications from equipment.As mentioned, integrated SMS also allow for you have more
Connection (pin) being connected to different sensor/outputs.For example, accelerometer may need 5 pins, if you deposit
It is the SMS in sensor assembly (such as mobile phone);The SMS being integrated in shirt may need less adapter, example
As SMS may only need to 2 pins.Using more sensors, in the case of not having integrated SMS, the quantity of adapter can
Can become not practicable.
Generally, SMS can be management turnover sensor signal module (chip), and may act as communication system (from
The sensor assembly of telephone configuration, etc.) interface and sensor between.SMS can manage connection and interface between them.Example
As and integrated SMS may include the physical connection with sensor, and can manage that signal is processed and signal is in sensor and sensing
The mode being transmitted between device module and/or other analysis or control parts.SMS may also comprise or may be connected to multiplexer with
Replace reading between the various sensors that it is connected to.
In some deformation, SMS can provide suitable power supply to passive sensor or active sensor.SMS can lead to
The port crossing such as USB port obtains power from mobile system.Integrated SMS can be by USB port from side and sensor assembly
(being for example configured to communication system/phone of sensor assembly etc.) communicates.SMS may act as sensor and sensor assembly it

Additionally, described any integrated SMS can be configured to including on plate process (such as pretreatment), including but do not limit
In:Amplify, filter, sampling (control of sampling rate) etc.;Typically basic pretreatment.Integrated SMS also can will be derived from one or many
The Signal coding of individual sensor.In some deformation, SMS may include the microcontroller on plate.Additionally, and integrated SMS also may be used
Generally management entry/exit is arbitrary or the communication protocol of all the sensors, and can carry out analog digital conversion (if signal is simulation), and
And also can before reaching USB com port communication with USB.For example, SMS can be configured to and converts the signal into UART to USB
Signaling protocol.
Additionally or alternatively, arbitrary integrated SMS can be configured to signal receiver/transmitter.For example, it is integrated in clothes
SMS be suitably adapted for for parallel signal being converted into serial signal (with the order of data).
As mentioned, integrated SMS can be placed at any position on clothes, such as on or near neck regions or
More peripheral place.Although SMS as herein described is referred to as " integrated " SMS, these SMS can be included on clothes or in (for example exist
Although in other deformation, it does not physically connect/be coupled to fabric, but is alternatively placed on clothes in pocket or shell.
Therefore, any one of these SMS are alternatively referred to as special or specific SMS, rather than integrated SMS (or except integrated SMS
In addition).For example, SMS can be placed in and (is contained in inside female connectors) under female connectors, as the part of clothes.When you wash
During clothes, SMS can be washed together with adapter and clip;Pin and SMS are waterproofs.
In some deformation, the adapter (such as pin/port) of SMS is suitable for water resistant/waterproof.For example, used
Pin can produce the connection of waterproof, for example, have and only just open when you engage main pipe foot, otherwise then is closure and waterproof
Connection.
In any one of these integrated SMS, SMS is a part for clothes, and is worn together with clothes;SMS mould
Block can anticipate signal so that they are ready to shift.
Therefore, in described any clothes, it may include SMS (sensor management system), it is located on each clothes
(onboard/special), rather than separate with clothes, such as the part of single sensor assembly, for example, can be kept
Universal intelligent phone in the pocket on clothes, as previously mentioned.Each clothes can have SMS (chip/microchip), its permission
Clothes has the adapter (female and male) with multiple pins (input/output) so that being derived from the clothes (socks of shirt, length and thigh
Son and adnexa, such as glove, socks, balaclava etc.) in the data of all the sensors first by SMS process, and can then pass through
Sent with the connection (such as little as 1 or 2 pin or more) of phone/communication module.Generally, clothes as herein described
Some sensors and part may individually need multiple connections, and therefore special SMS can be highly useful.For example, IMU
5 pins may be needed, and in addition to other sensors, up to 20 IMU (or more) also can be included as the portion of clothes
Point.Therefore, the use of special SMS can allow clothes management mass data connection/contact sensor.

Fig. 1 D, 1E and 1F be shown similar in Figures IA-1 C shown clothes, include the another of regional respiration pickup
One compression apparel.
As mentioned above, in some deformation, breathing/respiratory sensor includes respiration pickup, and it is processed
There is the resistance changing with stretching, there is in CYCLIC LOADING relatively small (or insignificant) mechanical and low-down electricity
The electrically conductive elastic bar of magnetic hysteresis.Such sensor can be referred to herein as electrically conductive elastic bar sensor or electrically conductive elastic strain gauge
Amount.Figure 23 to Figure 38 illustrates to manufacture and the method using a kind of deformation of respiration pickup being configured to electrically conductive elastic bar.?
This document describes conductive elastomer and the method manufacturing and using them.Particularly, can be used as this document describes being formed
The sensor (including in specific Wearable stretching (for example compressing fabric) clothes) on Wearable clothes (for example stretches or exhales
Inhale sensor) the conductive elastomer of part method.For example breathing or other contact and/or stretch sensor can included
Any clothes in using conductive elastomer as herein described.
Conductive elastomer as herein described can change resistance when they are stretched, and thus functions as stretch sensor.
Additionally, these materials can have fabulous mechanically and electrically characteristic when comparing with other stretchable conductive materials, because they have
There is very high mechanically and electrically memory.This means they can be stretched to for example up to original static stationary length 1.2 times (or
In some deformation:1.3 again, 1.4 times, 1.5 times, 1.6 times, 1.7 times, 1.8 times, 1.9 times, 2 times, 2.1 times, 2.2 times, 2.3 times,
2.4 times, 2.5 times, 2.6 times, 2.7 times, 2.8 times, 3 times, 3.1 times etc.) and return to identical resting length.The size of stretching
(length, width etc.) can be identical.Some deformation in, material perhaps in a size (such as length) than another chi
Very little (such as width) is more stretchable.Stretching this upper limit (1.3 times of such as original length, or some deformation in:1.5
Times, 1.6 times, 1.7 times, 1.8 times, 1.9 times, 2 times, 2.1 times, 2.2 times, 2.3 times, 2.4 times, 2.5 times, 2.6 times, 2.7 times, 2.8
Times, 3 times, 3.1 times etc.) under, sizable magnetic hysteresis do not shown by material, and will return to original static stationary length.
Similarly, material can experience little (if any) electromagnetic hysteresis, be stretching in the relatively high of stretching and limit it
Under.For example, material be stretched until their original static stationary length 1.2 times (or some deformation in:1.3 times, 1.4
Times, 1.5 times, 1.6 times, 1.7 times, 1.8 times, 1.9 times, 2 times, 2.1 times, 2.2 times, 2.3 times, 2.4 times, 2.5 times, 2.6 times, 2.7
Times, 2.8 times, 3 times, 3.1 times etc.) after can have roughly the same conductivity/resistance.Additionally, in the magnetic hysteresis with stretching
Change can be linear at least a portion of this scope.Therefore, material described herein is with non-using showing
Often little electromagnetic hysteresis.Additionally, these characteristics can be (for example in a lot of hundred, thousand or 100,000 week of stretching during a rapid lapse of time
In phase) repeat.
Finally, can be extremely fast in response time when stretching recovers.For example, material (can for example be less than 4 less than 5 seconds
Second, less than 3 seconds, less than 2 seconds, less than 1 second etc.) in return to initial performance measurement (for length and resistance).Therefore, electricity returns
Time (less than maximum tension length, 1.3 times of such as original length, 1.4 times, 1.5 times, 1.6 times, 1.7 times, 1.8 times, 1.9
Times, 2 times, 2.1 times, 2.2 times, 2.3 times, 2.4 times, 2.5 times, 2.6 times, 2.7 times, 2.8 times, 3 times, 3.1 times etc.) entirely stretch model
It is faster than 5 seconds in enclosing.
These characteristics of material and particularly electrical characteristics seem during the stretching circulation even repeating from conductive material
Reduction molecule damage produce.This may result in the increase of the length in the life-span of material.Additionally, elastic characteristic (returning from stretching)
Seem to be driven by core elastomeric material, conductive material (such as conductive coating) is coated to this core elastomeric material.Core material
Seeming to be kept is elastic characteristic, even if being applied the coating that (drying) has the relative thick of conductor.
Figure 23-38 illustrates to manufacture a kind of method of conductive elastomer.In short, as seen in the referenced figures, elastic material
Expect and particularly elastic waist bandcast material can be applied as mentioned above.Figure 23 illustrates an example of elastomeric material.Generally, elasticity

Its any combinations.For example, material for example shown in Figure 23 for the elastomeric material can be formed by porous/absorbing material such as cotton, and can wrap
Include extra (being for example polymerized) material being braided or being sewn in covering material.
Elastomeric material can be opposite, narrow and thin bar or band when starting.For example, the width of band can be in about 0.1 He
(there is the preferred thickness of about 1.5cm) between 3cm.Material may include the multigroup warp thread (example being woven on fabric or in it
As elastomeric yarn).
Generally, by by elastomeric material and the elastomeric material of particularly absorbability or partly absorbing property coats (example first

For example in fig. 24, the solution of the white carbon black being suspended in water is poured in plastic containers.As shown in figure 25, then
To be coated by the both sides of elastic webbing being dipped in solution and it being moved to opposite side (left-to-right) from side in the solution
Just uncoated elastomeric material.In fig. 26, obtain the uniform fold of whole belt surface, as shown.Coated band can be then
It is dried, as shown in Figure 27.For example, dry zone can be carried out by applying heat and/or air (or vacuum).In figure 27,
Coated band is dried 30 minutes in convection oven.
Once being dried, this core elastomeric material just may be connected to conducting end and/or be added to exterior material (typically by
The identical being applied to material is formed by it) it is used for being attached to clothes.For example in Figure 28, a pair of terminal (is illustrated as copper end
Son is although any conducting terminal can be used) it is attached, also shown in Figure 29 and 30.For example in Figure 29, by cutting copper material
Material (for example becoming the rectangle that length is of about 20mm) simultaneously wraps up terminal material (its in the edge carrying in electrically conductive elastic fabric periphery
It is generally not elasticity) forming copper tip.Conducting terminal material (such as copper) can be elasticity or can have coated
Elastic fabric (conductive elastomer) to secure it to electrically conductive elastic band, as shown.In fig. 30, instrument 3001 (for example clamps

Tape material can be referred to herein as wire carrying material or the zigzag adapter of referred to as suture.This material can be advantageously relatively
It is prepared and is cut into desired length in length to be used for fixing (for example adhesively fixing) clothes and/or sensor.
For example in Figure 32, electrically conductive elastic band is placed on the thermal viscosity cementitious surface of the conductor strip in the area not including wire
On, and it is connected to conductive wire end.For example, as shown in figure 33, conductor (wire) is welded to copper tip.
Once being applied to conductive wire, elastic webbing can be enclosed in fabric, and (such as insulating fabrics, it can be applied with it
The fabric being applied to is identical) in.In some deformation, elastic webbing can be enclosed in insulating material and/or be coated in insulation in vivo.
In Figure 34 and 35, the outside viscosity tulle band of electrically conductive elastic band (inclusion contact) is sealed to the width of about 33mm.Tulle

The environmental sensor also accommodating the activator appliance causing aroma and flavor and determining the quality of environment.
The message that be received of physiological measurements can be converted in the message physiologically embodying for ECR.As an example, Peng Youke
Her emotional state is sent to the user (wearer) of equipment by her equipment and is used as tolerance:The ECR of user can be by pressing
Power is applied to his shoulder and message is converted into sensory centre message, for example, give one's regards.User's commutative sensory centre message, example
As touched the regard of shoulder, embracing, push away, showing tender care for, rousing oneself, loosening, and there is the selection responding, including:I) ignore;ii)
Accept and return a salute (using themselves message);Iii) refuse (electric discharge).User may be selected how to receive a) pressure (wide),
B) pressure (narrow-aperture), c) pressure-message (as Morse code), d) vibration, e) between temperature change etc. (including combination)
Message.User also can not accept " emotion " potency message to protect the privacy of s/he and/or can provide feedback to improve emotion solution
Release the accuracy of language.
For detecting, explaining, change, transmit and perceive the system (" equipment ") of emotion
For example, clothes (including collar, shirt etc.) as herein described can be configured to DITCRE clothes.Shown in Fig. 9-10E
Schematic diagram illustrate that how DITCRE can realize in clothes (including the collar as shown in 8A-8B in figure).
It is suitable for detection, infer and/or determine (obtaining) emotional state and allow based on obtained emotional state to go
Dynamic clothes can be used for control feedback, its may training, meditation or learning tasks in be useful, and it can also with its
Other people are useful in linking up.Therefore, can usual analyzing from the multiple sensors worn by user over time
To obtained emotional state can be used for provide output.Such communication can be typically more real and get close to, part
Ground is because the explanation of emotional state is based on parameter that detect rather than exclusively self-report and different sensing mode
Use.Wearer may be selected they want when to link up and/or want to link up which emotional state, and particularly they wish
Hope and link up with whom.Arbitrary clothes may include the one or more outputs (such as tactile output) being detected by wearer, as mentioned above.
For example, tactile coding can be used for transmission in the case of even without oral/written communication.For example, tactile coding can be using not
Your this type code is transferred to wearer/transmission between wearer.Generally, tactile activators can be located at sensitivity and emotion is rung
Should maximum (experimentally specific user is determined, or generally according to user colony determination) body region/position on, with
Optimize the position of tactile activators.
Therefore, clothes as herein described can (include particularly in the specific communication between wearer) when linking up adding
Extra size.For example, body " language " can be explained by sensor assembly, and can render from the output of clothes or from clothes
Message.Clothes is also suitably adapted for providing feedback, can have the comment treating impact on wearer, depressed including identification and treatment
Deng.
In use, these clothes also can provide the explanation of the emotion of subject and expressive output.For example,
Clothes can help explain in the middle of culture/language.Just as spoken language, private message (gesture, body language etc.)
Also can the spendable hint of offer device, and be expressed as the part of the output of subject or received by another user.
As mentioned above, in Fig. 8 A and 8B, collar be located at cervical region around, from back extend, polygonal greatly in left and right
On bone and extend to the front horizontal left and right side of cervical region, and do not pass through collar " slip " in order to head above reconnecting.
Receptor can accommodate sensor management system (SMS), female connectors and/or public connector and:Sensor is (for example as extra
Parameter (such as pressure or the level loosened) assess user emotion the EMG sensor on the os multangulum majuss of left and right;
Olfactory sensor as the emotion of extra parameter evaluation user;Determine the quality of surrounding, the environmental sensor of toxicity
Deng);Tactile activators and the mechanism producing pressure, vibration, temperature-change etc..These sensors can transmit user or other use
The emotion at family, can pass on to user and loosen and nervous output conduct " message " or relaxation treatment.
In some deformation, clothes also includes:(such as abnormal smells from the patient and stink reproduce activation to one or more olfactory sensation activator appliances
Device) and the taste activator appliance that is placed on the front left side and front right side of ECR, as the emotional state of transmission user or other users
Additional means;One or more video cameras (being for example placed in forward right side or the front left side of ECR), it is suitably adapted for determination face
Portion's expression is as extra parameter to assess other people emotions and/or Evaluation Environment.Collar may also include speaker with surrounding
People share music and message.
ECR can be connected by foregoing touch point (the intended touch area on clothes) and can be activated and manage
Reason.ECR can be from sensor management system receives input, including being converted into two or more mood potencies or state (such as 8
Emotional state) User Status assessment.The quantity of such state and classification can change following).The example of mood potency
May include:Accept, indignation, expect, detest, happy, fear, grieved and surprised.Mood potency can be communicated back to user and/or
Third party (as by user's control).Mood potency can help the user better understand themselves emotion, and can help
In the classification jointly shared, their emotion is passed to their friend.
ECR can generally help physiological measurements (such as ECG, skin conductivity rate, EMG, breathing etc.) and " assessment " (such as face
Portion's expression, posture, make indiscreet remarks, motor behavior, speech tone, eyes-sleep or vigilance, motion, action etc.) be converted into clear
The qualified emotion in ground.EMG may also aid in the message by voice, physically embodying or visual display and transmits those emotions.Make
For example, friend can send as her emotional state of the clothes measurement by her:Message can be converted into sensory centre and disappear by user
Breath (is for example given one's regards, by pressure is applied to his shoulder;Send describe the abnormal smells from the patient of tactile of her emotional state or taste,
The color of her emotional state or the audio frequency of her emotional state or vision description are described).User's commutative sensory centre message,
For example touch the regard of shoulder, embrace, push away, showing tender care for, rousing oneself, loosening etc. it is possible to make the selection to response.For example user can
Ignore, accept and return a salute (using themselves message) and/or refusal (electric discharge).User also may be selected how to receive a) to be pressed
Power (wide), b) pressure (narrow-aperture), c) pressure-message (Morse code type), d) vibration, e) temperature change, f) audio frequency retouches
State, g) vision description etc. between message.User can control communication switching and can selecting do not accept emotion message with protect she/
His privacy.This is linked up mode (including the use of tactile) and identifies that other mode are (no when transmitting emotional content/context
It is limited to audition or vision (oral/written) mode for example touches) can be more effective (or differently effective).Therefore, institute
The physiological measurements of user can be converted into intelligible message, including the message of the mood potency of user by any clothes of description.
User may be selected to link up the form (different-format of such as touch, audio frequency, figure, figure, numeral etc.) of data.For example, clothes can
The message allow user that the physiological measurements (mood potency) of user are converted into voice, physiologically embodying or visual display are (front
Display on arm, on glasses or on smart phone or touch screen) give other users.Additionally, clothes and particularly having
The clothes of ECR can allow user by allow them to provide with regard to data assessment, expression and communication feedback improve emotion-
The accuracy of interpretative code.
ECR system also acts as self promotion system (like the five-star system of speech recognition):Express and transmit them
Emotion user more, emotion limit, describe and link up more accurate.Additionally, user can activation system by clothes
Touch point and system interaction act on.
Can be using ECR in various contexts.For example, ECR can be used as lie detector.Typically, lie detector detection
Controlled and may include the change in somatic reaction such as skin conductivity rate and the body function of heart rate by conscious brains being not easy
Change;They are it is also possible to consider breathing rate, blood pressure, telangiectasiss and muscular movement.These tolerance may indicate that from the short-term told a lie
Pressure-responsive or the importance to subject.Problem produces, because they are also attempted to spirit and emotional state is related;So
They can for example be feared, angry and surprised impact.Can be used for the long-term monitoring of user and the as herein described of training/regulation
EDR system can better discriminate between open such response and illusion response.
ECR can also be used for security evaluation, and such as Environmental security, inspection air (level of pollution, toxicity etc.), water (can not be drunk
With, can not swim), soil;Check position, for example, search for the danger in region around, crime report for example in the zone
Announcement, snowslide, flood, tree fall down, poisonous region;Function is indicated based on the time of one day, year etc., for example, again sends out
Raw event such as parade etc..ECR also can monitor user behavior and provide with regard to such behavior (for example eat, drink, substance abuse
Deng) data/feedback.The clothes with ECR may also aid in and/or provides the feedback with regard to travelling, for example, drive (driver's row
For, the track record of driver, around traffic, the type of road, weather condition), flight, navigation or operation machine/vehicle.
Finally, the clothes being with or without ECR may be useful to security initiative:A) urgent call:911st, doctor, GPS
Tracking, kinsfolk's monitor/track, training;B) provide relevant information:The type of danger, position, the physiological data of user, use
The medical treatment at family and related data, the mood data of user, health insurance, financial situation etc..Clothes (being with or without ECR) can also
It is more interactively, provide with regard to health (include level of activation, eat) or the suggestion with regard to emotional health state.
As described in Figure 10 A-10E, ECR can be based on down one or more of to list to execute measurement and to assess:
Physiology (being measured by sensor) information, gesture (IMU for example on waist and accelerometer), posture (for example module,
Each shoulder, middle spinal column, under epispinal IMU), motor behavior (IMU for example in each ankle and each wrist), voice
Assessment (such as recording of voice), facial expression (for example oneself ear, the sensor on forehead and cervical region, other people regard
Frequency video camera), assessment (the such as temperature of abnormal smells from the patient or stink (such as chemical sensor), EMG and/or EEG sensor and/or environment
Degree sensor, contaminant sensor etc.).
For example, Fig. 9 general introduction can interactive a pair of user, each user have be suitable for the detection of emotion, explanations, turn
The clothes changing, transmit and perceiving.In Figure 10 A (detector, including sensor device), (explanation of sensing data is to determine for Figure 10 B
Mood potency), Figure 10 C (actuator and communication, including from user or using similar devices other people potency information defeated
Go out) and Figure 10 D (feedback) in be described in more detail in these regions (being labeled as A-D) each.
Such device can be tried out to general groups, and described general groups are included in their daily conventional activity
Their health status people interested and also right is monitored during (walk, eat, working, being sitting in before their computer)
Want in their training or specifically monitor the athlete of their the level of physical diathesis during activity.Participant (user) can
Can need to register and fill with hospital or the similar list of the list filled by professional athlete:The problem that participant replies is got over
Many, their assessment is more accurate.
Figure 10 E illustrates a kind of method, and wherein emotion valency can be that specific user determines based on various sensors, and also
May include the specific feedback of specific user.Additionally, Figure 11 and 12 figure illustrates how ECR can operate with from subject
Determine their actual emotion valency or the overall estimation (Figure 11) of " health status ".Similarly, sensor can be used for carrying to user
Indicator (Figure 12) for total body constitution.These charts can provide the assessment that can use graphical presentation, such as in figs. 11 and 12
Shown, the health status of people or the snapshot of athletic the level of physical diathesis are provided.Assessment can based on multiple parameters (for example,
It can quantitatively change, such as from 8 to 20 or more, depending on the quantity of the sensor in given equipment).Each figure
Can provide:(1) health status of user or the value of the level of physical diathesis are synthesized based on the adjusted synthesis of all parameters;
(2) health status of whole colony or the value (being given with the % of absolute quantities and quantity) of the level of physical diathesis are synthesized so that using
Family will immediately know that whether she is higher or lower than meansigma methodss.This value quantity with user in accuracy increases and increases;
(3) value can be adjusted to achieve people and specifically need.For example, because the 30% of the people of over-65s is fallen due to lack of balance
And come to harm, the balance of the people of 70 years old the people than 40 years old can be given higher dependency.Similarly, the act of Urine scent
The athletic intensity of weight can be given higher dependency, or the endurance of super triathlete than tennis player
It is given higher dependency than revolution skier.User can therefore be come using this images outputting for each parameter
See that her value and total group is worth.User can study the details of each parameter further.For example, the efficiency score with colony
Efficiency score relatively;How efficiency is calculated;It is related to the biostatisticss calculating;Consideration the present art on hand
The accuracy calculating;Medical accuracy, etc..
Select the user improving given parameters (balance of such as 70 years old people) that string can be given and temper (rope skipping, single lower limb station
Deng) completing it.Touch feedback can be used for telling her balance of user when below or above meansigma methodss and/or raising instruction
And/or the performance of active stage and optimal performance.
A lot of sensors in a device and tactile actuator may be suitable for allowing user when they just take exercise and it
His user links up (for example passing through audio frequency, tactile or visual message), to maximize their efficiency, improves their execution.
For example, a) athlete is linked up either with or without warm-up when starting to take exercise;B) when completing to take exercise, whether temperature is too cold;C) exist
When execution is taken exercise, whether posture or body position are not suitable for;D) whether user makes his muscle over loading;E) athlete is in training
Either with or without sufficiently advancing during phase.
Stretchable electrically conductive ink pattern
Any device as herein described may include stretchable electrically conductive ink pattern.Generally, stretchable electrically conductive ink can have
Scope from 5% to 200% draftability, for example it can be stretched its resting length 2 times (200%) more than and do not rupture.
In some instances, stretchable electrically conductive ink can be stretched to more than 3 times (300%) of its neutral resting length, 4 times
(400%) more than or more than 5 times (500%).Stretchable electrically conductive ink pattern is conductive, has low-resistivity.For example, body electricity
Resistance rate can be between 0.2 and 20ohms*cm (and sheet resistance rate is between every about square metres 100 to 10,000ohm).
Conductivity may depend on stretching although it is positively retained in scope described above (for example between 0.2 and 20ohms*cm).
In structure, any stretchable electrically conductive ink pattern as herein described is typically by insulating binder and electrically conductive ink
Particular combination is made.Generally, stretchable electrically conductive ink pattern includes the insulation of first (or bottom) layer and elastic adhesive and is led
Electric ink layer, wherein electrically conductive ink include conducting particles between about 40% and about 60% (for example white carbon black, Graphene,
Graphite, silver metal powder, copper metal powder or iron metal powder etc.) and between dielectric resilience binding agent and conductive ink layer
Gradient zones or area.Gradient zones are the combinations of electrically conductive ink (conducting particles of such as electrically conductive ink) and binding agent, wherein ink (example
As conducting particles) concentration can change with change in depth.Generally, gradient zones can be electrically conductive ink (such as conducting particles)
With the mixture of binding agent, wherein can be less than conductive oil in conductive ink layer in the concentration of the electrically conductive ink in gradient zones
The concentration of ink.Gradient zones can be the continuous gradient of electrically conductive ink (particle), and for example, it can be heterogeneous or it can be
Stepped gradient.
General electrically conductive ink, for example, be used for the electrically conductive ink of printed circuit and even flexible circuit, is insufficient to stretchable next
For clothes, particularly include being not used in compression apparel, and may rupture or form line of discontinuity when using.Surprisingly,
The combination offer conduction and highly stretchable/tensile electrically conductive ink of electrically conductive ink, gradient zones and insulating binder is combined
Thing.The composition of the electrically conductive ink that can be used as described herein generally includes:Conducting particles between about 40-60%;
Binding agent between about 30-50%;Solvent between about 3-7%;And the thickening agent between about 3-7%.
Additionally, centre " gradient " area between insulating binder and conductive ink layer is important using being also found to be.
Used and combined with binding agent and hypotoxicity and low change are typically had with the electrically conductive ink forming electrically conductive ink pattern
Answer originality (the such as less than concentration of formaldehyde of 100ppm) and the repellence to the damage from washing, follow including in the washing repeating
Electricity after ring and the maintenance of elastic characteristic.
Figure 39 C illustrates of the electrically conductive ink pattern (electrically conductive ink complex) of the extensibility with height or draftability
Deformation.In this example, electrically conductive ink pattern is applied to substrate 1039 (it can be fabric, including forming compression apparel
Or the compression fabric of transfer substrate) on, and include ground floor electric insulation elastic adhesive 1021.The outer layer 1025 of electrically conductive ink leads to
Cross Middle-gradient area 1023 to separate with adhesive phase 1021, Middle-gradient area 1023 is the mixture of electrically conductive ink and binding agent,
The concentration of wherein electrically conductive ink declines to elastic adhesive layer 1025 from the area being closer to conductive ink layer 1025.This gradient zones
It is referred to alternatively as intermediate layer, and can have the Inhomogeneous charge/distribution of electrically conductive ink and binding agent.Optional outer insulator is (for example
Unshowned insulating resin) it also is included within conductive ink layer.Outer electrically conductive ink can be formed by multilayer conductive ink.
For example, the electron microscopic of the sample of electrically conductive ink pattern that Figure 39 A and 39B illustrates to be placed between two aluminium supporting seats
Photo (scanning electron micrograph, SEM).In Figure 39 A, lowermost layer 2805 is binding agent, adjacent to this layer and in this layer
On be gradient zones 2803, and adjacent to gradient zones 2803 and on gradient zones 2803 be electrically conductive ink 2801.?
In this example, extra insulating barrier (resin 2811) is placed on the top of electrically conductive ink.Generally, electrically conductive ink can be by multilamellar
Coated electrically conductive ink is formed.In Figure 39 A, to form conductive ink layer by continuously applying 5 layers;These layers are micro-
It is not visible in photo.
In Figure 39 B, electron micrograph is used for quantifying the thickness of layer.In this example, conductive ink layer 2801
(area) has about 50 μm of thickness, and gradient (transition) area 2803 has the thickness at 40-80 μm between about, and glue 2805
There is about 150 μm of thickness.
Gradient zones can act as tensility and the stability strengthening electric conductivity for strengthening electrically conductive ink.Electric conductivity
Allowed by upper zone, the mechanical stretching (due to binding agent) of the height simultaneously being allowed is strengthened by lower layer.Gradient zones are sent out
The incomplete mixing of existing electrically conductive ink and binding agent seems structure and the composition leading to repeatably be stretched and discharge, with
When keep electric conductivity.Note, the resistivity of complex can change with stretching (generally increasing resistivity with stretching), and
This characteristic can be used for detection stretching.
Generally, can be by combination electrically conductive ink and bonding before any one of electrically conductive ink and binding agent are completely dried
Agent come to form gradient zones it is allowed to they combine to form the transition region with suitable thickness.The composition of ink is (for example about
Conducting particles between 40-60%;Binding agent between about 30-50%;Solvent between about 3-7%;And
Thickening agent between about 3-7%) can determine that the formation parameter in this overlapping (gradient) area.Figure 40 A-40D shows stretchable leading
The example of the component distributing of example of electric ink logo (complex).In Figure 40 A, carbon is shown and generally deposits in whole layers
As to expected from organic material.In Figure 40 C, the distribution of silicon concentrates on substrate, and (plastic-substrates, electrically conductive ink pattern is made
Make on this substrate) surface on and in electrically conductive ink pattern spread.Similarly in Figure 40 D, it is local that oxygen is diffused in each.
On the contrary, as shown in Figure 40 B, sulfur concentrates on ink but is not in glue.The gradient of sulfur is thereby indicate that morphologically similar to Jiao area
Gradually transition from ink to glue in domain.This area is gradient region or area, and wherein Inhomogeneous charge occurs.
In Figure 39 A-39B and 40A-40C, stretchable electrically conductive ink pattern is in ink and binding agent (together with exterior insulation
Resin) be printed to thereon the substrate of polyester paper on formed.This pattern can be subsequently coated by clothes so that it adheres to clothing
Take and substrate (paper) can be stripped off from the place of ink reservation.Binding agent is high flexibility and allows to stretch.Electrically conductive ink is only
Can be only somewhat stretchable, but almost stretchable not as binding agent, perhaps due to rigid metal particle.Mesozone
(wherein binding agent and electrically conductive ink are overlapping) is critically important.Being thoroughly mixed in this area will make this area become uniformly, and may
Reduce conductivity (because binding agent is insulation);Part mixing can keep draftability, keep electric conductivity simultaneously.
Make the external protection that electrically conductive ink insulate, for example forming conductive trace or making sensor or electrode figure when needed
Can be included during case although it may for example middle broken Electrode contact area.Resin (" priming paint ") can be not with electrically conductive ink
Link or one or more layers insulant of mixing.For example, resin material can be insulation, and may also aid in protection do not meet with
Meet the detergent washing and fluid (water) and be protected from scraping etc..In some deformation, resin is acrylic acid (such as propylene
Acid resin).Also acetaldehyde or acrylic acid (synthetic resin) can be used.Can by printing come apply any component (such as electrically conductive ink,
Binding agent and resin).For example, Figure 41 illustrates for by the example of stretchable electrically conductive ink pattern printing to suprabasil method.
In Figure 41, the first mask (" silk screen ") 301 is used for being formed and to be coated is applied to the viscous of the substrate under silk screen 3001 (invisible)
The pattern of mixture (electric insulating cement).For example, when being applied directly on fabric, binding agent can be by getting over silk rolling during shielding
Net draws " wet " binding agent 3005 coated so that it forms shown pattern.The multiple coating of binding agent can be employed, or thick
Degree otherwise can be conditioned (for example passing through coating power, viscosity and/or screen openings size).Hereinafter, the second silk screen is (or identical
Silk screen) can be used for applying the pattern of electrically conductive ink.The multiple coating of electrically conductive ink can be applicable to realize expectation thickness (generally less than
The thickness of binding agent.Second silk screen can have the opening being slightly less than used for the pattern of binding agent, or they can be identical
Size (or bigger in some deformation).Binding agent and electrically conductive ink can be made coextensive.When being coated to transfer substrate
When, sequentially can invert so that electrically conductive ink was applied to substrate before binding agent.As mentioned, insulating resin (is for example protected
Sheath) can be coated adjacent to conductive ink layer.
(for example, for example pass through to directly print and/or transfer to knit in some deformation of electrically conductive ink structure as herein described
Thing and formed by electrically conductive ink trace, sensor etc.) in, electrically conductive ink includes conducting particles, such as white carbon black, coated cloud
Female (being for example coated with the Muscovitum of antimony-doped stannic oxide), Graphene, graphite etc..Material may also include and acts as being comprised in
All solids component in ink is permanently bonded to the alkali/binding material of fabric.This binding material (binding agent) can be
